Storage in winter

Turn off the mower using the isolator switch.
u
The mower will operate between 5 °C and 45 °C. During
u
the winter season once the temperature in the garden is
consistently below 5 °C store the mower and the docking
station in a secure, dry place, out of the reach of children.
Do not place other objects on the mower or docking station.
It is recommended to use the original packaging when trans-
porting the Indego over long distances.
Store the mower only within a temperature range
u
between –20 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave
the mower in the car in summer.
USB
The mower has a USB interface which is to be used ex-
u
clusively for software updates (see figure M). Use only
approved USB.org sticks (formatted to FAT 32) and ap-
proved USB.org OTG cables.
For more information on software updates, please refer
u
to www.bosch-diy.com/indego-help.
Do not use the USB interface for any additional pur-
u
poses. Do not plug any external devices. Do not oper-
ate the machine with the cover of the USB port open.
Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery Pack
Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuit-
u
ing.
Protect the battery against heat (e.g.,
against continuous intense sunlight), fire,
water, and moisture. There is a risk of explo-
sion.
Keep any unfitted battery away from paper clips,
u
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal to an-
other. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause
burns or a fire.
